A few weeks ago, I took in a stray cat... She may be a kitten, she's kind of small and very playful. Recently, my fianc'e and I noticed her stomach was getting larger. She appears to be pregnant and she is not very playful she just wants to sleep everywhere around the house. I am not sure if she is pregnant, but she is getting bigger by the day. She's lazy and extremely tired all the time now.

My first question is, "If
she is a kitten, can she get pregnant"? And

My second question is if so then when will she be do?
Visually she looks about ready. What should I know as a new cat owner? Especially after she gives birth, what advise could you give me.

Thank you very much

I think that you need to take her to the vet. She may not be pregnant she may have worms. This can cause her stomach to appear swollen and cause her to be lethargic. Worms can sap all of their strength, as they are taking vital nutrients from their body. I would think if she was about to deliver, you should be able to feel or see the kittens moving.

I agree 100% with bush... wow I didn't think I'd ever be able to say that... :eek: Sounds like wormy kitten to me; a quick trip to the vet will definitely clear things up! Good luck to you and your new kitty!
